Droid2 downloading but not downloading

My phone notification bar shows a 8% downloading updates status bar. After leaving the phone alone for a few hours, it's finally at 17%.

I've checked the market and there is nothing to be updated. I'm assuming I forgot to uncheck one of the automated updates and it's getting stuck.

I tried restarting and removing the battery, but once the phone boots up again it starts back up.

There's nothing in the notification to show WHICH app is suppsosedly downloading, so I'm confused.

Can anyone help?

If your Droid 2 is running the Froyo version of android/Motoblur it could be the Gingerbread update downloading.

Menu > Settings > About Phone - Android Version will tell you what version you have.

You can also do a Menu > Settings > About Phone > System updates to pull the update from the servers and get the update process over. If you can connect to WiFi it may download quicker.

Hello and welcome to the community!

Try going into the Market, tap 'Menu' then select 'My Apps'. You'll be able to see which app is downloading, if you tap on it, you can also stop the download. I've seen this a few times on apps trying to update on my different android devices since my first Droid. I believe it just gets stuck in the Market every now and then.

I hope that helps! Thank you!
